Wetland plant growth in recycled glass sand versus dredged river sand: evaluating a new resource for coastal restoration

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Sand made from recycled glass cullet could supplement limited dredged river sand (dredge) in coastal wetland restorations; however, its suitability for wetland plants is unknown. In two experiments, we compared the biomass of several wetland plants in recycled glass sand to growth in dredge.

Restoring soil and tree nutrition through non‐industrial wood ash additions to sugarbushes

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Nutrient losses from forest soils caused by decades of acid deposition have affected tree growth and depleted soils of essential nutrients in eastern North America. Non‐industrial wood ash (NIWA) is rich in macronutrients and may be a potential remediation strategy to restore lost nutrients as a forest soil amendment.
